Akeem Qadeer's blog respone





I am responding a blog from Akeem’s Bloggy.  I agree completely when Qadeer argues about the difference between the northern and southern hemisphere.  It is true; in the north they were much more violent than they were in South America, Cuba, Spain or Portugal. “Negro slaves” in the south in a way they had to pay a debt to its owner and some I believe were set free after they finished their work (Qadeer).  Now a day’s slavery still exists in a way because America still has that racial background.  Qadeer was born in Guyana and lets the reader now that there are still racial conflicts. I am from Puerto Rico and it is exactly the same, but the tension is stronger between social classes and the areas where you were raised not so much against “skin color” (Qadeer).  I would advise Qadeer to re-write this paragraph adding more supporting ideas either from the book or another source and to stick with his main argument which is the two different areas that existed during slavery and maybe compare them either politically, legally or morally.
